This volume is devoted to an assessment of the performance and selected aspects of the management and pedagogical practices of Fe y Alegri?a, a federation of Jesuit schools serving approximately one million children in 20 countries, mostly in Latin America. The available quantitative evidence suggests that the federation's schools often do reach the poor, and that students in Fe y Alegri?a schools tend to perform as well on test scores, if not slightly better than comparable stu 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aPoor children$xEducation$zLatin America$vCase studies 606 $aEducational equalization$zLatin America$vCase studies 607 $aLatin America$2fast 615 0$aPoor children$xEducation 615 0$aEducational equalization 676 $a379.2/6098 701 $aOsorio$b Juan Carlos$01806780 701 $aWodon$b Quentin$01104883 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960097103321 996 $aFaith-based schools in Latin America$94356147 997 $aUNINA
